Default Has anyone had a 2 level at L3-L5?

my US Md is scheduling my discogram and based on the results I a, strongly considering Dr. Clavel, but I haven't seen any posts for anything above l4-l5. Hopefully it is just the one but he thinks probably it is both. Not excited just wondering if anyone else had this type done and how it went.

Thanks for any advice,

Dingie
